Last year I dyed my hair black and i've kept it black since then. I am now trying to get my hair back to a more natural color: dark brown-light brown. I tried Herbal Essences Dye.. It was called Iced Bronze or something like that.
It just dyed my roots brown and make the black in my hair a really odd color.
If anyone knows a good brand and/or color of dye that will completely cover black, let me know!!
Thanks a BUNCH!

i dyed my hair black..and i couldnt get it back.
i put highlights into my hair instead.
but my black faded into dark brown after a month but it was still dark, than like 2 months after i dyed it black i put a bunch of blonde highlights in it for the summer time.
if your curious i used:
clairol-natural instincts:medium brown 20 HAZELNUT
than it fades in about a month, *&* it'll be like...dark brown-medium brown. [ andrizzle21's advice column | Ask andrizzle21 A Question ]

Also DO NOT dye it blonde, if it is already black it will turn it a funky orange color, which won't look at all natural. I think you will be really satisfied if you go to a professional. More expensive? Yes, but your results will be what you want. [ sewchic9's advice column | Ask sewchic9 A Question ]
SweetStarx89 answered Sunday June 5 2005, 9:05 pm: hey your hair is really dark now...unless you dye it a million times that color you can't do anything to it since it's already black. i would go have my hair professionally looked at and see what they say about it. or you can bleach it. hope i helped. take care. x3 SweetStar.

TRiSHx0xL0VE answered Sunday June 5 2005, 7:07 pm: it would probably help dye it or bleach it blonde first, that way the color you buy will come out pretty much the same color. A lot of dye works..but i usually go with the one that has the best picture and most updated picture on the front lol.
CrzyLatinaChc answered Sunday June 5 2005, 3:50 pm: I dont know any color that would go over black really well but i do know that a hairstylist can strip the color from your hair back to your natural color. Hope this works.
ReTrObArBiEx3 answered Sunday June 5 2005, 3:44 pm: well sweetie you just can't put brown hair dye over black because black is so dark. you have to bleach your hair first since blonde is a light color then dye it the brown so you can actually see it.
